When we think of a graph of the size of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 we thought of a model with a considerable size and an advanced cooling system with several fans. Models like the NVIDIA Founders Edition have two big fans, and at GEEKNETIC we brought you the review of the MSI GeForce RTX 3090 Gaming X Trio 20 G, a model equipped with a complete triple fan cooling system.
The turbine heatsink the MSI RTX 3090 AERO is geared towards multiGPU systems
That is why MSI’s latest release draws attention, its RTX 3090 AERO is equipped with a unique Turbine-type fan attached to a block of aluminum fins through which the air passes to the outlet of the box. The design is reminiscent of quite old models of GTX graphics from the series 400 from NVIDIA itself.
These types of designs tend to produce more noise and achieve less cooling of the GPU itself, in return, all the hot air that is generated is expelled from the box, so it is a system that can come in handy in boxes very small or in the case of multi-GPU systems, sector towards which this card is oriented,
In addition, its size is smaller than other solutions, occupying only two slots.
Power relies on a dual 8-pin PCIe connector system, one less than the Gaming X Trio model. These connectors are responsible for powering the RTX GPU 3090 with its 10. 496 CUDA CORES with a maximum speed of 1. 695 MHz Boost and the 24 GB GDDR6X memory to 19, 5 GHz.
It has three DisplayPort 1.4a outputs and one HDMI 2.1. Its measurements are 300 x 111, 12 x 38, 67 mm. At the moment we do not know its price.
